Street Railroad Facilities.

The part that the street railroads are
playing in building up this city is a very
considerable one. They afford quick trans
portation to localities that are quite distant
from the business centre, and thus encourage
the building of dwelling houses in those
/ localities. Within the last five years the
sandy, barren commons southeast of the
park has been built up with handsome resi-
dences. A single block there is now worth
| more than a hundred acres were ten years
ago. Improvements upon a large scale
have also been made in the southwestern
section. Without the street railroads the
improvements in the localities indicated
would have been insignificant in comparison
with those which are to be seen there now.
There is still lack, however, of street car
accommodations. The section south of An
derson street has a population large enough
to justify the extending of a street car line
through it. Street car facilities would aid
greatly in building it up, and the street car
company which recognizes this fact, and acts
upon it, will do good thing for itself and
for the city.
In proportion as improvements are made
the demand for mechanics and laborers will
increase, and the prosperity of the city will
keep pace with the increase of that demand.
The disposition to build ism very marked.
New houses are being erected in all the
southern part of the city, and the indica-
lions are that within the next twelve months
more buildings Of one kind and another will
be erected than ever before in the same
length of time in the city's history
The street railroads can help along the
building boom by extending their accommo-
dations to the localities that are being i'm
proved.
